Welcome to Windows 7 Forums. Our forum is dedicated to helping you find support and solutions for any problems regarding your Windows 7 PC be it Dell, HP, Acer, Asus or a custom build. We also provide an extensive Windows 7 tutorial section that covers a wide range of tips and tricks.

On the assumption nothing strange is going on i.e. the PC has become faulty, go into the control panel under power options and check everything is set to what you want it to be. If all seems OK may be a good idea to run a good malware program in case you have picked up something - MalwareBytes is a good start.

Thanks, I researched somemore and followed some other advise and the one that worked for me was to reinstall the BIOS. Question, if this corrected the problem, would it then be a fault in the hardware or software?

BIOS resides on the mother board in a read-only chip although in some later systems it can be modified without changing the chip. So it is actually in hardware. Some problems can be fixed by just going into the BIOS (F1 before the OS starts) and resetting it back to default settings (F9 from memory).
